With the deadline looming tomorrow, Eliana was a bundle of nerves.

Beatrice was just as anxious.

Back then, she’d arranged for another woman to drop the child off at the orphanage.

she was certain the child was at that orphanage.

But the child wasn’t there. She didn’t know where the director took the kid to.

Beatrice wasn’t about to let the Lennox family’s fortune slip through her fingers.

Eliana sat on the couch, her eyes stormy with rage. “When the hell is that damn director coming back? Tomorrow’s the leadline!”

Beatrice furrowed her brows, her gaze troubled and conflicted.

Suddenly, her phone buzzed.

She glanced at the screen–an unknown number–but answered anyway.

Hello?” Beatrice replied, maintaining her usual elegance.

Mrs. Hale, do you remember me? Three years ago, I helped you drop off the child at the orphanage. The woman’s voice on he other end was dripping with smugness.

Beatrice shot to her feet. “It’s you! What do you want?”

Mrs. Hale, don’t get worked up. Just hear me out,” the woman said.

Tell me, where’s the child?” Beatrice demanded, her voice trembling with urgency. She knew exactly why this woman was calling–money.

Back then, this woman was just some streetwalker looking for a quick buck. Beatrice knew people like her would do anything or cash, which was exactly why she’d handed the child over to her in the first place.

Mrs. Hale, I checked with the orphanage. If you want to get your granddaughter back, it’ll cost you 000 thousand. F’ll tell you where she is, but she’s not at the orphanage. You’ll never find her on your own, the woman said.

What? I gave you 300 thousand back then just to drop the kid off at the orphanage. It was supposed to be a simple job, and now you’ve made it a mess. And now you want even more cash?” Beatrice snapped

Are you trying to get yourself killed?” A cruel smile curled on Beatrice’s lips. She wouldn’t lose sleep over one more body

“Mrs. Hale, how could I ever send such a cute little girl to an orphanage? I found someone to raise your granddaughter for you. And instead of being grateful, you’re threatening me? the woman said.

Beatrice’s eyes grew even icier, her whole presence crackling with deadly intent. “What the hell do you mean, you gave her to someone else to raise? Who gave you the right to make that call?

“Mrs. Hale, I know you’re desperate to get your granddaughter back. Wire 600 thousand to the same account as last time. and I’ll tell you where she is.

“Save your threats. People like me, crawling through the mud, aren’t scared of anything. Just consider it hush money, Mrs Hale. With that, the woman hung up.

Beatrice, furious, slammed her phone onto the couch.

No matter how much she schemed, she never saw this coming.

Eliana blurted out, “Did you find the child?”

Beatrice nodded. “Yeah. Instead of taking her to the orphanage like we agreed, that woman handed the kid off to someone else. Now she’s demanding 600 thousand.”

‘Damn it! Who is it?” Eliana shot to her feet, slipping on her shoes. “Who the hell are they?”

She thought, “Threaten me? They must have a death wish.

Eliana wasn’t one for good deeds, but when it came to getting her hands dirty, she was second to none.
